"Real" New Yorkers are constantly amused by the hipster attempt to "hipsterize" real Brooklyn by opening dumb@ss resutaurants in inappropriate places (the Daily News called this "a grafitti-covered hovel") and attempting to rename areas (with the help of realtors) to make otherwise unsavory areas sound "hip" and "fun" - hence the attempt to redub Bushwick as "East Williamsburg."

This is an area I avoid in day time let alone at night, but please feel free to ignore my advice if you so choose.
